      Just shows ...... it’s been flowering and looking good for weeks.
      Here’s a cosmos veloute instead.
      Hope I haven’t posted this one already too! I’m getting very scatty these days.
      The flowers underneath are gypsophila murabilis and euphorbia diamond frost.
      Both beautiful little frothy things that I really like.
      Anyone else having trouble uploading photos today?
      Can’t get this one to go in.
      Maybe your photo is too large - what error are you getting?

            • What are you using to upload your photo with. You won’t visually see the picture size difference. Chop it in half and try again - most users either use a photo resized or edit the photo with their phone/iPad.

                Well done Scarlet.
                I just trimmed the edges and it worked.
                Thank you.

                  • Today’s chosen flower is tiger lily but this time they are double flowers. The flowers last for ages.

                        I take it that its cheaper,Could I buy compost there also, or do I have to be a pensioner to get it cheaper?
                        it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

                          • Another dahlia for me today - been waiting for this one to open. It's been really slow growing and a little stunted due to the lack of rain.

                            • My Flower is another Hydrangea just a few feet away from the blue one but its pink! So much for them being an indicator of your type of soil.

                                Don't have to be a pensioner - just over 60.
                                You join the Diamond Club (in store) and get 10 percent off stuff on Wednesdays. No point just trying to look like an old codger, they want proof of your age!!
                                As you can imagine, wednesdays tend to get a bit crowded in B & Q.
